Ring Carson for some tea, grab your yarn, meet us in the drawing room, and let's get to knitting! After a four-year Downton drought, we couldn't help but be excited for the Crawley family to grace the silver screen once again! To commemorate this notable affair, we knew we would have to find an appropriate project to cast on our needles!

The color artists over at Madelinetosh helped us come up with a tailor-made shade on Tosh Merino Light for this distinguished occasion! Fittingly named A New Era, this exclusive colorway is swirled with beautiful rose hues and cream-colored perfection with flecks of peacock teal speckled throughout each hank!

This color is only available in our A New Era kit featuring the Downton-inspired Yorkshire Skies Shawl designed by Kristen Ashbaugh-Helmreich.

Each kit includes two of these stunning skeins, a download code for the shawl pattern, a marvelous and fitting shawl pin, plus a surprise stitch marker!

Like the return of the Crawley family, this kit is making only a brief appearance, so be sure to get it while you can! Don't forget, we have free shipping for ALL U.S. orders through the month June!

Please note that US Size 4 - 24" and 40" circular needles and US Size 4 DPNs are recommended for the pattern, but not included with the kit.

Pride Month may be coming to a close, but that doesn't mean the rainbows and our support for the LGBTQ+ community have to stop! Our Pride Kits can be worn and displayed any time of the year!

Add some rainbows to your winter wardrobe! The Wear It, Be It Hat and Come As You Are Socks, designed by Amy Gunderson, feature small Electric Rainbow hearts on a cream-colored background, so you can wear your heart in more places than just your sleeve!

Make a project that is sure to impress! MarinJaKnits' incredible Prideful Shawl uses the strands of Urth 16 Fingering to create a colorful and stunning Progress Pride Flag you can wrap around your neck or drape over your shoulders!

Each of these kits include a Lucky Sardine Black Sheep Unicorn Rainbow sticker! Plus, 100% of the profits of the Black Sheep Unicorn Rainbow pins, stickers, and patches will be donated to the Human Rights Campaign through the month of June!

Sweater + Poncho = Swoncho!

While summer has only just begun, we are already daydreaming of all of the cozy garments we'll be sporting this fall! Just because the weather is warm now doesn't mean we can't start planning and making our pieces for the colder days ahead.

Get ahead on your fall knitting with Blue Sky Fibers' next knit-a-long, starting July 1! Featuring the cushy strands of Skyland yarn, the Santa Rosa Swancho, designed by Afifa Sayeed, is the next staple in your wardrobe.

With the warmth of your favorite sweater and the ease of pulling on a poncho, swancho patterns are always a delight to knit and wear!

With a soft drape and a simple stripe motif along the bottom, this piece is extraordinarily flattering and comes in sizes XS to 5XL. We can already picture ourselves heading out on an autumn afternoon with a warm drink in our hands and the sound of leaves crunching under our feet!

Skyland is about to be one of your new favorite yarns! This plush and luxurious yarn is made from a sumptuous combination of baby alpaca, silk, and fine highland wool. The cushiony fabric made out of Skyland feels like taking a trip on a giant puffy cloud in the sky! With 11 colors available, appropriately named after elements you'd find in the sky, you are sure to find a shade to match your style!

To get encouragement, support, and inspiration, be sure to follow along in the Friends of Blue Sky Fibers Ravelry group!

Joanne's Inclinations Cowl

Our Bean, Joanne, was looking for some new yarn to match the purple hues of her new hair color, and when she saw Zauberball Crazy yarn she knew it would be the perfect fit! With fall approaching soon, Joanne thought the Inclinations Cowl, designed by Andrea Mowry, would be a winning pattern! Knit with two contrasting shades of Zauberball Crazy, the greens, blues, and purples blend stunningly together. Great job Joanne!

Great news! This pattern is available as a kit on our site!
